Nina Sharif, who has lived in Berkeley in northern California for many
years, got back from a visit to Iran just a few weeks ago. With her she
brought these pictures from Maydan-e Tajrish, or Maydoon-e Tajrish, a sort
of mini bazaar in northern Tehran. They are only simple images from here
and there. But as I looked at them, I could see, hear and feel the hustle
and bustle of Tehranis shopping for everyday goods. I could even taste
the sweet laboo and the salty baqala (boiled beet and lima
beans). Enjoy.
